anything? I don't know Villanova Looks very impressive, as does Texas.

We'll find out about Texas on Saturday when they play Duke. I actually think that Duke could lose this game. Demarcus Nelson is out with a broken ankle, and the team just wasn't the same without his spark. Should be an awesome game.

[JimBrown32]

I'm sorry what does the media have to do with Duke going to atleast the elite 8 almost every year?

 

It pumps up the fans, seriosuly Duke gets all the attention in NCAA basketball, they get all the press and all the TV time, it pumps up the fans, it makes good basketball players want to go to that school because it has alot of TV time, and chances are that I'm gonna be in the News if I go to Duke. As the best basketball player in this forum, I can bet you money I am, I know. I'd play with Duke if I was an attention whore. I am the best and if you doubt this, then ask yourself, could you come within 2 points of beating Kevin Garnett in a game up to 21? I doubt it.

I already explained why that view is false.

 

I don't understand why being on TV would matter, and I don't think Coach K accepts players who think like that. Coach K wants players who want to win, and are committed to winning a National Championship. Have you noticed how many of Duke's stars have stayed their full 4 years? If players were only interested in getting their highlights on tv would they stay 4 years when they were a star their sophmore/junior year? No they wouldn't.

You, sir, are a liar. Yeah... you took one of the best basketball players in the world down to the wire in a game of 21

I think that was a joke.

[See Red]

Ya never know with him.

[Manny Goes Boom]

Actually that would probably make you underrated, when you can actually pass to someone it makes you better, you can't be serious, JJ is not the best player in the Nation, Kevin Garnett was WAY more productive with better players on his team, you can't be a superstar if you can't share the ball. Good players take total control of the ball and don't pass and put up huge numbers, but if you want to be the best in the nation you'll put up better numbers when you actually have some talent on your team.

 

When that is said, it is meant by players in the NCAA. OBVIOUSLY KG is better than Redick...that goes without saying...he meant college hoops.

[Manny Goes Boom]

I think that was a joke.

 

Hahahaha...he probably meant on NBA Live 06 and he created himself. LMAO

[JimBrown32]

You, sir, are a liar. Yeah... you took one of the best basketball players in the world down to the wire in a game of 21

 

No, I didn't, but I scored 10 against him, pretty good for someone my age and height, I could easily be on the AND1 team if I was older. I'm the best;) No NBA Live '06, I dropped 50 on someone last year just because they asked me to. I'm so good, I'm UNSTOPPABLE. Except when there's someone who can black the s*** out you, like KG. I play against 20 year olds and WASTE THEM. Guys who have played High School, College ball, I could beat Earl Boykins, I could probably beat a few NBA Players.

He's still not the best in NCAA:blink:

[Manny Goes Boom]

Fine, thats your opinion but I thought I needed to clarify.

[JimBrown32]

Fine, thats your opinion but I thought I needed to clarify.

 

Yeah, you clarified.

[yankeessuck013]

How 'bout them Hoosiers??? Losing to Indiana State. Nice.

[JimBrown32]

The Hoosiers looked so sad against Indy St.

[Manny Goes Boom]

Is it over? :dunno:

[JimBrown32]

Is it over? :dunno:

 

Ya, it is, lmao.

[podsednik20]

New Mexico is playing Washinton Today. I'm not sure if it it going to be televised World wide though.

[YanksHater213]

Who gives a s*** about that game. Duke vs. Texas is where its at.

[podsednik20]

I Care about that game.

[JimBrown32]

I Care about that game.

 

Now who else cares about it? Lmao, Duke vs. Texas is right. :thumbsup:

[podsednik20]

okay, you guys just dont know how good the Lobos are without their star players from last year. I mean no they arent undefeated, no they arent ranked. But if they were, would you guys watch it?Like ranked 2 or something.

[YanksHater213]

I wouldnt watch UNM if they were ranked 2. But they would never be ranked 2 anyways.

[podsednik20]

okay, just wondering. And your probably right.

[JimBrown32]

okay, just wondering. And your probably right.

 

Probably? Of course he's right. UNM really isn't very good, even if they were I don't see them entering the Top 5 because they really don't play to many good teams.

[YanksHater213]

Exactly. Theyre in a patsy conference. They will never have the SOS or RPI to get that high.

[JimBrown32]

Word^

 

They just can't if they don't face the teams like Texas or Duke or North Carolina or Wake Forest; etc. It's just that simple, they CANNOT make it up there unless they go undefeated, and that's ridiculous to even mention, we shouldn't even be having this conversation. It's just flat out impossible. Almost. It's possible but a VERY long shot.

[See Red]

.Apparently, both teams agreed before the game that their would be no fouls called on Duke.

[See Red]

Duke's looking good, but Texas is looking overrated. How the hell do you leave J.J. Reddick wide open?

[podsednik20]

wait, so your basically hating on a tema because i like them? correct? dont say it isnt becaus eyou know its true. Oh well, i really dont care. Just to prove you wrong, watch NewMexico Beat washington. washington is ranked 12th, in the country. last year they were ranked what 3? Yes they dont play alot of good teams, good for them. It is possible for them to make it to the top 5. they Choked last year, if they didnt do terribly in the first quarter against villanova garuntee they would have atleast made it to sweet 16. Go ahead and laugh at me for typing this, i couldnt care less.

Oh please, cut the drama, save it for your mama. Where does it say that? Don't be an idiot, and I'll continue to hate on them because THEY SUCK. Can you get that through your tiny peanut sized brain? It's obvious that we're "Hating" on them because they suck, if you look at the previous posts you can see it. It really isn't very possible to make it to the top 5, they play s***** teams. As far as that "If they didn't do this and that" s***, save it, it's in the books. Just stop being a moody ass little 8 year old and maybe we wont hate on you so much.
